Russian language

Hi! I'm using russian 5.0.16 for win-1251 and having following problem: in censor list, the bad words I type in in russian (cyrillic) do not work on forum. Any idea? Thanks, EdB

Most likely because the admin section uses another encoding. You must change the encoding not only in the template but also in the admin section when you type. So in your case use windows-1251.

However, if you look at the post Thomas posted a while ago, I would suggest UTF-8 instead. That way others can use the Alhabets as well without problem and your forum is really multilingual.

Although I changed my /include/admin/header.php according to /templates/default/header.tpl (which I use), the (Admin) definition of "Scheiß", "Scheiße" etc. as a Bad Word in the Censor List does not show any effect on Message bodies.

What else do I have to check?

PS: Bad words with normal ASCII work fine.

What does this have to do with the russian language?

Beats me, maybe Scheiße even happens in Russia :-p

I had some troubles with Russian symbols in HTML_HEAD and mail messages.
I resolved it and want to tell about it.

1). use language pack for russian-5.0.13a posted by Vladimir Dyakov
2). in file '/include/admin/header.php' add:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251">
3).in 'read.php' and 'list.php' comment string:
$PHORUM["DATA"]["HTML_TITLE"] = htmlentities( $PHORUM["DATA"]["HTML_TITLE"] );
'htmlentities' - is useless for russian.
4). need to change MIME header in file 'email_functions.php':
mail($address, $mailsubject, $mailmessage, "X-Mailer: Phorum5$msgid\nFrom: $from_address\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1251\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n");

Will be glad hear anything about it.
